WTTeNBeRc COLLEGE BOARD.

Important Proceedings of the Semi-An-
Inaal Meeting Xester,iny-lAn Enio nent
~ 100000 To he Raised.
Y The regular semi-annual meeting of the
Wittenberg college board was held at the
college building. this city, Thursday. DIR.
lmhoff. of Urbana. president of the board.
occupied the chair, and DIR. Singley,
of Bellefontaine. was at his post as secre-
tary. About twenty members of the board
were in attendance and the session was char
acterzed by interest and enthusiasm. A
great deal of work of the day was routine
in its character.
1t was resolved to raise
AN ENDOWMENT OF ONE HUNDRED THOU
SAND DOLLARS
for the purpose of adding four
more members to the faculty. and meeting
other expenses. 1t was the sense
of the board that one was needed
in the preparatory department. one in the
theological department and two in the col
lege proper. III is believed that no difficulty
Ssill lls~rxpsAenced in raising the endow
ment as ii is stated that the well-known
Harter family have signiiied their intention
of contributing S25,00O to the endow-
ment fund. This will be pushed
forward as rapidly as possible. but just
how soon it can be accomplished is not
known.
The only other matter of public interest
was the resignation of Pref r. F. Delo as
financial agent of the board-a position
which he has filled with credit for many
years past. The resignation was not acted

Tho Gypsy's Tent Home.

The Observance Is universal Of the rule
which prevents all men and women from oc-
cupying the inner compartments Of the tents
only at night, or when driven TO the same by
storms; though you may lounge in the front
of the tent to your hearts content day and
night. In case Of quarrels involving serious
struggling and possibly endangering life, no
man defending himself may he pursued with
IN his tent. This is an invioabis law, ani The III
rest penalties will surley follow its inlraction.
Gypsies cling to an old tent 10 the last moment
it can be splicesl and pstchei together, out Of
pure affection for il. AN old tents an old
friend, is one of their sayings Any gypsy
born under a tent preserves q piece of the
bows or the woolen covering until his diving
lay, and it is then burned with his effects
Nothing can make them confess il, but there
is clearly drscoverable a superstition that this
bit of the old tent home will somehow accom-
pany them and serve them good turn in the
future world. That place. or condition. is
expected to provide them with all prized ma
terial things, especially inclusive of splendid
horses and limitless free grazing To be born
In the tent carries pride as does a good strain
of blood. Those born in house are regarded
as unfortunate. They are often called in de-
rision kair rajahs or house lords
The tent almost invariably faces southwark,
The natural inference regarding this is merely
the expression of desire to secure the health
full and genial sunshine: but a deeper siyu;fi-
caDce attaches. Ii is not difficult to trace in
this fact, lingering recognition of the adora-
tion taught in the sacred Zend Avesta Ed
gar L. Nakeman in Chicago News

fully one hundred guests were present
The ladies and gentlemen were paired off
according to coloIs. each gentleman select
ing sealed envelope containing a necktie
and becoming, thereby, the partner of the
lady wearing an apron of a corresponding
color. The evening was spent in games and
social amusements. and little dancing. but
the crowning triumph of all was the sup
per. which was really very superb affair
The social is pronounced the best of the
series of social events given by the college
this season.
A very successful party was given last
evening at the residence of Mr.. W. ii. Har-
rison, No. 90 north Mechanic street, for

FINGER NAIL INDICATIONS.
Signs that Show the Temper and Di
position of People.

signs that SHOW the Temper and Dis
position of People.
He who has white spots on his nails is fond
OF the society of ladies, but is fickle in his at
tachments. He who keeps them we'll rounded
at the tip is proud man. He whose nails arr
detached from the finger at the further ex.
sremity, and when cut showing larger pro
portion of the finger than usual. ought never
10 get married, as it would he wonder if be
were master in his own house, for short nails
betoken patience, good nature, and above
all, resignation under severe trials.
Nails which remain long after being cut
level with the finger end are a sign Of gener-
osity. Transparent nails suffused with lightre,l
mark a cheerful, gentle and amisble disposi-
tion. Lovers with transparent nails usually
carry their passion to the verge Of madness.
III you come across a man with long and
pointed nails you may take it for granted
that he is either a player Of the guitar, q
tailor or an attorney.
He who keeps his nails somewhat long,
round and tipped with black is romantic
poet. Any one having the nail of his left
thumb all streaked, as though it had been
stained with snuff. is sure to lie a school
master. Thick nails indicate obstinacy and
i'll nature. He whose nails are dirty all over
Is a recluse, philosopher, q compositor or a
dyer. A man with yellow nails is one who
indulges in every species Of vice, that Of
smoking being the most predominate. Be
careful not TO confound with these such as
are in the habit Of peeling their oranges with
out knife.
The owner Of very round and smooth nails
Is of peaceable and conciliatory disposition.
He who has the nail of his right thumb
slightly notched is . regular glutton, even
nibbling at himself, a., when having nothing
eatable at hand, he falls to biting his own
finger nails. And lastly, he who keeps his
nails irTegularly cut is hasty and determined.
Men who have not the patience to cut their
nails properly generally come to grief; most
of them commit suicide or get married. We
advise the fair sex TO keep their eyes on the
nails of intending husbands if they are to
look for happiness in their welded life. -Ex-

somewhat thickly set. His complexion is not
TOO ilorid, his head not too big; his shoulders
arc round rather than fiat: his neck is not
too long. His hands are large, his feet rather
thick and long; his legs firm and round. Ho
has broad and arched chest and the faculty
of retaining his breath for long time. AS to
his habits, the joys of the table arc to him of
Importance; they tune his mind to serenity.
He eats slowly, and has not too much thirst.
If lie ever gives way to anger, he experiences
10 more than useful glow of warmth. He
